Abstract

The study and use of SI Units is fundamental to all subjects within the Engineering & Physical Sciences. The International System of Units has it's origins in the late 17th century, however, it is now recognised worldwide as the standard by which all Science and Engineering are based. This revision tool, developed by members of the Autonomous Systems Lab at Middlesex University, allows the learner to practice the application, use and combination of 52 of the most frequently used SI Units. A useful pocket-sized reference to all seven SI Base Units, 22 Derived Units and 23 Other Units this product seeks to educate and demystify this complicated and heavily rule-based system. Designed for use by Engineering and Physical Sciences students at all educational levels from School, College to University degree and beyond.
